A few of the newer regional jets currently visiting @HeathrowAirport. Air Frances and KLM's latest regional aircraft, F-HPNU and PH-NXY. Royal Air Maroc's new B737 MAX8 CN-RHE and not new but relatively unusual is Kuwait Airways A330-841 9K-APH. #avgeek #A330 #b737

Two aircraft types whose performance has been transformed with a turbine conversion. The turbo DC-3 N560PT of Desert Air Transport and a DHC-4T Caribou N600NC of Rampart Aviation. Both photographed this year in Anchorage and San Diego. #avgeeks #DHC4

A few pictures from the Royal International Air Tattoo #riat #riat2025 last weekend held at RAF Fairford. 4 pictures don't do it justice. Excellent selection of aircraft and great displays. Highlight for me was the U-2 in the flying display. #avgeek #planespotting

Korean Air have reintroduced their B747-8's onto the @HeathrowAirport service. Great to see HL7638 in their latest livery departing Heathrow on the evening of 26th July. #B747 #QOTS #Boeing747 @KoreanAir_KE #avgeek #planespotting #Heathrow

You don't see many South African registered biz jets @HeathrowAirport. A rare type in Heathrow also is the Learjet 35. This 43 year old Learjet flew into Heathrow today from Kano. #avgeeks #learjet #bizjet

Unusual but very welcome visitor to @HeathrowAirport yesterday just after lunch time. National Airways B747-412BCF N756CA. Delivered new to Singapore Airlines as 9V-SMM in 1992, she is still earning her keep as a freighter. #b747 #QOTS #avgeeks

On short final for 27L @HeathrowAirport this morning, the Sultan of Brunei's very impressive B747-8 BBJ V8-BKH. Built in 2012, it took over 4 years to customise the interior with her being handed over in September 2016. #B747 #QOTS #Avgeeks #Boeing747

[PJSAero @Peter_Smithson]

The different colours worn by CSA over the years. Tupolev Tu-134, #A319, Tupolev Tu-154 & #A310, unfortunately all now gone. #planespotting #avgeeks

[PJSAero @Peter_Smithson]

The A318's days are definitely numbered now in Europe. Tarom withdrew their fleet of 4 aircraft which just leaves a very small handful of Air France examples. F-GUGP a 2006 built example is seen departing @HeathrowAirport yesterday morning. #A318 #Airbus318

[PJSAero @Peter_Smithson]

Departing in some lovely laye Autumn light from @HeathrowAirport yesterday morning, Qatar Amiri Flight B747-8 BBJ A7-HHE, a truly stunning aircraft. Built in 2012 it took 4 years to outfit the interior and she enered service in 2016. #B747 #QOTS #Boeing747

Something a bit different at @HeathrowAirport last week in the shape of Royal Jordanian's A321 Freighter JY-RAZ. The one time Bmi & BA aircraft was converter to an A321P2F in Jan24 & joined Royal Jordanian in Mar24. #A321 #A321P2F #avgeeks #planespotting

Lovely weather on Friday @HeathrowAirport plus easterly departures on 09R allows for some different angles on some regular aircraft making them look slightly a bit different. The Etihad has a different design on either side. #b787 #a350 #b777

[PJSAero @Peter_Smithson]

Korean Air B747-8F departing @HeathrowAirport on Friday afternoon. Korean have stopped using their passenger B747-8's into Heathrow but continue to send in their B747 freighters. #B747 #Boeing747 #QOTS #avgeeks
